Re: 443 high oil pressure - cause for concern?

Hey thanks TxGoat, I appreciate all the advice you give here. And yeah, the oil pressure drops when I pull out the choke, even while the engine is running the exact same speed. Once warm, it does seem to run a little better with the choke pushed all the way in but seeing it nearing the top of the gauge on oil pressure always has made me nervous - it sounds like you’re telling me I don’t need to be.

And yes, I have been reading the materials - they don’t have the owner’s manual for the 443, but they do for the ‘28 6 cylinder models, and the commonalities are enough that it’s pretty useful (the instruction manual partly what inspired the question). But still on climbing the learning curve…slowly. :)
